-" Don't care if do-what you got ?"
" He hasn't anything that you want"
put in the attorney for the defense; "if
you want to trade can give you mighty
good show with my bay mare"
Order in the Courtroom, roared the
Justice, waking up at this point what
was that last testimony you gave?''

OUR TIMEKEEPING.-A scientific writer
remarks upon a problem which is attract
ing to its study astronomers, namely, that
which relates to the earth as a timekeeper
He says we measure time by dividing either
the period which the earth revolves around
the sun or that in which it turns on its own
axis-by the first method q year being
measured and day by the second. The
earth, according to some astronomers, is
actually losing time; through two causes
the suns attraction and the friction, as it is
termed, of the tides-the earth each year is
stated to revolve more slowly on its axis
The speculative question which is thus be-
ing considered and discussed is whether, in
the end, the earth will stop its revolution
upon its axis and will present always its
same face to the sun-an event which,
when it occurs, will cause perpetual day in
one part of the earth and perpetual night
in another. Concerning any such liability,
however, good scientific authority declares
that there is no occasion for immediate
alarm that is. the rate at which the earth
is supposed to lose time only shortens the
years by half a second in century, and, as
there are more than 81 500, 900 seconds in a
year, the earth, if it ever does thus cease to
revolye on its axis, will not do so for more
than 6,000,000 600 years yet to come.

REMEDY FOR Ivy PoIsoNrNG-I have
always been extremely susceptible to the
poison of poison-ivy and oak so as to give
me great annoyance, unless it is immedi-
ately checked on its first appearance This,
common washing soda accomplishes for
me, if properly applied. l make the ap-
plication by saturating a slice of loaf bread
with water, then cover one surface with
soda, and apply to the eruption, the soda
next the flesh. When the bread is dried
by the animal heat, l drop water on the
outer side so as to keep it thoroughly
moistened and dissolve the soda crystal in
contact with the skin. This, you will per-
ceive, is merely bread poultice; the
bread being vehicle through whose
moisture the soda reaches the humor |
find that washing or bathing with soda
water, even continuously, will not suffice
with me. My skin requires the heat and
moisture of the bread in order for the soda
to act on and neutralize the poison l
rarely have need to retain this soda poultice
for more than thirty minutes on any af-
fected part. No pain ensues. Formerly
suffered for weeks, as the poison would
spread all over my body. Now. thirty
minutes measures the duration of its ex-
hibition.-R. S. Lacey, IN Popular Science

AT OLD FORT THoRNBURG.
An Official Who Has Exceeded His
Duty.

On the old Fort Thornburg Reserva-
ton, near Ashley's Fork, Uintah
County, a person by the name of
Michael Gallagher has been quite off,
cious and offensive during the past
summer, ordering settlers off the
ground, and directing them not to i'm
prove or in any way possess the same.
This reservation having been sban-
doned by the government, has been
surveyed, and will soon be thrown open
to settlers; to this end. persons have
commenced to improve and build on
the tract, which persons have been pes
tered by this Gallagher, claiming that
he was placed there by the government
for this purpose. The matter culmin-
ated about a month since, when he
posted notices on certain property, that
unless the folks there left the old reser-
walton by November 10th, he would de-.
stroy by fire, or otherwise, every yestige
of improvement made by them on this
land. Messrs. S. w. Darke & Co.. of
this city, were informed of the situa
ton, and upon their advice, affldavits
were obtained, which were forwarded
by them to Commissioner Sparks, on
the 4th of the present month. Yester-

pointed, bat am advised that no instructions

ernmeOt buildings were on the reserYa-

or injured by anybody. You certainly
have no authority to injure in any way The
Improvements on this land, and further
more no instructions were given you to
compel settlers to vacate the land SO long as
they did not interfere with or injure the
government buildings thereon.
lEtnasmuch as you have sincesreported that
there are no buildings on this land be-
longing to the government, and as this re-
servation has been abandoned by the mill
tary authorities, / see no good reas on why
settlers should not be allowed to remain on
the land, at least until any claims they may
have thereto under the provisos to second
section, act of July 5, 1884. shall have been
adiudicated. You wi l govern yourself &C
cordingly, and acknowledge receipt of this
letter / have brought the t:er to the at

ment buildings to guard, do not see any
need of q custodian.
